The Board President may recognize any person who wishes to address the SCESD Board of Education under the "Public Comments"section or
during the time an agenda item is being considered.
If your comments are in reference to an item on the agenda, please note the Agenda Item Number on the form.
Please USE A SEPARATE FORM FOR EACH AGENDA ITEM you are addressing.
The speaker must submit a Speaker Form PRIOR to the start of the agenda item.
PUBLIC COMMENT GUIDELINES:
During the Public Comments, any person may address the School Board on a topic of interest or concern. Listed below are the procedures:
1. Public Comments will follow the Procedural Items on the agenda.
2. Public Comments will be open up to 20 minutes (3 minutes per speaker). Comments should be brief, and repetition of public comments already
expressed at the same meeting should be avoided.
3. Those wishing to address the Board should fill out the Public Comments Speaker Card and submit the card to the School Board clerk or other district
official at the meeting.
4. Questions may be asked on any topic, including those on the agenda.
5. School District policy and data privacy laws preclude the Board from publicly discussing personnel matters or data, including information, which if
discussed in a public meeting, could violate law or policy. Complaints or concerns regarding individual school district employees should be presented in
writing to school administration and signed by the person submitting the complaint or concern.
6. An attempt will be made to answer questions addressed to the Board.
7. The School Board chairperson will attempt to honor requests to speak reasonably but shall also exercise discretion with regard to time constraints and,
therefore, may limit the number of requests to speak accordingly.
